You stuck in the cult of Linux and projecting your mentality onto other things without deciphering each on their technical marits. You look at all software in Linux terminology rather than making a distinction to articulate correct phrasing in a cohesive manner.
Wrong, guess again. Read the websites.
BSD is FOSS, unless you are an idealogue.
BSD does not have distributions, those don’t exist.
In that specific area, that’s where compared to each BSD operating system, Linux will forever be trash garbage.
Have you watching benchmark videos to see how far behind your 2600 is? A 13100 would give you 100% more speed, much less the 14100 that is coming out.
Since you focus on games with the 165Hz, buy a 7600x, get a quality motherboard like an Aorus Elite AX or MSI at that price, 32GB DDR5, then in 3 or 4 years you buy a 9950x and go to 16 cores on that motherboard to do a system upgrade.
Trying a new system is not the same as using it for a week with all of your programs installed and you see how responsive it is with your programd open and running.
You are missing a lot of instruction sets, and buyig AM5 now or next year buying Intel with feed the 165Hz a lot smoother and you will make better use of it. The 2600 can’t keep up with the 6850 and provice consistant smooth frame timings.
You need to build a new computer including new power supply. You can only re-use the Radeon and storage in new system, everything else must be replaced. Check the price of 2600K on eBay. You whole PC minus 6850 might sell for $200. I would argue that you’re holding on to something that can’t sell anymore.
Proton is trying to do too many things and can’t excel at doing one thing. It’s getting too big beyond its capabilities which means services are going to suffer at a lower quality.
If the want blanket trust from users, remove the VPN login to make it anonymous and change the VPN code to remove all anti-features and comply with native F-Droid, other RiseUpVPN is the only choice for everybody to use.
Pay for an online number, there’s one time phone number websites you can use, but services are getting better at detecting if it’s a real cell number and block VoIP numbers.
It’s good to be leary to give your number to a business or service for privacy, but there’s no valid reason to obsess about individuals getting you number on a social level, you’re not important enough for other individuals to start bothering you simply because they got your number. I have a business card I give out with my personal number. However it also means you can’t use plain texting because other apps on the the other person’s device will see from your text message that this is a live number to track and spam.
Since you’re asking, you’re definitely not ready. Learn a projects formatting style for the code, work on open issue, submit patches, listen to all critiques and criticism.
Submit and the others will say when you’re good. If you want to learn code correctness and proper security of code, study and go through OpenBSD’s code. You could read the code for openNTPd and the code for OpenSSH, then move on to reading kernal code for OpenBSD.
The 4K Freesync isn’t going to provide much because the evidence for pushing that says there wil not be an 8800 XT or 8900 XT. Maybe in 4 to 5 years there will be a 9900 XT 4K Freesync graphics card.
I’m going 4K but that will wait until after I buy 5080 or 5090 to push 4K everything. Right now, only 4090 can do it and nothing less than 4090.
Given the future of game engines, I would recommend 4080 over XTX to power future games. You will have to replace the XTX sooner based on the newest game you have at anytime. Watch the price of the 4080 in 2 to 3 months for a good sale.
For VMware, beng productive work, what do the benchmarks show for Intel vs AMD with VM?
Congratulations, would you like a cookie?

Then spend every dollar you can on a video card to power the dual 1440’s. Then work towards buying a new motherboard and processor.
If you can afford it, Dark Power 13 1000W, oterwise the Pure Power 12 1000W as a second choice.
Having 2 1440’s, yes, you badly need to upgrade video card. Something like a 6800 XT, 4070 may work or might not be strong enough but 4080 is a lot of money, or 3080 Ti.
After you buy a GPU, save up for new board and processor, your 6 cores won’t always keep up with graphics card
Why side note to start, why do people like start a conversation with “I mean…” when there was nothing said previously? That is a phrase usually reserved for when someone is clarify a previous statement regarding what they meant to say beforehand, that’s why I ask, how do initiate first contact with “I mean…”?
For LMG, the position of the person in contact with Billet Lab is irrelevent. In a healthy company, there is frequent contact between the different deparments during work. Interdepartment agencies. When someone at LMG got the request for the prototype to be returned, it would be their duty and responsivility to pass the memo on to the person(s) involved and notify them in the appropriate position of the request with a statement that it has to packaged up so the individuals who handle all incoming and outgoing packges can get it sent back to Billet Labs. It’s not the person who received the request that is then responsible for the packaging and mailing of it.
It’s different employees in that chain who are responsible and as they complete it they pass it on to the next in line in the process for getting it ready to go out.
Billet Labs asked for it to be returned. LMG agreed the their request and told Billet Labs “Yes, we will return it to you.” Then LMG auctioned it off. LMG committed theft. There very well may be a valid legal case for Billet Labs to sue for punitive damages if LMG does not give them a sizeable amount of money.
Seeing Linus not address about LMG agreed to send the protype back to Billet Labs, plus Billet Labs publicly stating “No, we never agreed to financial compensation, we asked for it to be returned” and Linus saying it was auctioned for charity makes Linus Media Group a thief.
Yes,I’m saying LMG stole the protype from Billet Laps since it was sold and not retuned.
No, it will never be used anywhere in any business.
Everything GNU and FSF does is driven by ideology, and there’s billions of dollars that will will make sure businesses never use or accept anonymous payment services of any kind of those businesses don’t want to be charged with money laundry and all properties confiscated.
But only if they use payment services that are not part of the banking networks with verified account names.

Linux is a bad attemot at copying UNIX. BSD comes from the orginal UNIX of the 70’s. BSD was a summary of the patches, fixes, and other developents that was applied to the Unix codebase and then after the lawsuit took the original UNIX patches and started BSD 4.4-lite
